For your application we have the CE Smith Galvanized Axle Beam # CE33201GA which is also available with idler hubs that have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern as part # CE33201GA-HUB. The only spec that doesn't quite match up is the weight rating as you said 2K and this is rated for 1.8K.

If you absolutely need a 2K rating then I recommend checking out the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - Straight Spindle # ASR2KHDS01 which installs directly to your trailer frame. I like this system because it gives you a much more effective but simpler suspension since you aren't dealing with hangers, bolts, leaf springs, and equalizers. If this is for a boat application just make sure you rinse off Timbrens so it's clean water they are left to deal with.
